The Seaponies were introduced back in 1983 and made few appearances in the years following, but have never been
written out of current series My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.
However, a new illustrated hardback called Under the Sparkling Sea is due in April 2013 and will "introduce fans to a brand new land and an underwater city of Aquastria." Could it be that Friendship is Magic will lead viewers on a visit to Aquastria before the end of season three?
Three other books have been dated for April as well, according to the website for publisher Hachette: Meet the Ponies of Ponyville, Welcome to Equestria, and Twilight Sparkle and the Crystal Heart Spell will be available in paperback and as e-books.
Also in the works are an asyet untitled book due in July, thought to be a Twilight Sparkle sequel, and a My Little Pony handbook called Elements of Harmony, which was first unearthed in September via retailer listings.
